[SOLVED] Multiple games crashing. Graphics driver issue?

schard · 2019-12-24 14:42:51

Hi all.

I am currently trying to get "Cities Skylines" started via Steam Native.
The game itself is a native Linux binary.
The game loads the main menu, but when I try to start a new game, it crashes at some point while loading.
I found this excerpt in dmesg:

I googled for the error messages and some people on the bug tracker suggested that the system is running out of memory.
However the system has
* AMD Ryzen 5 2500U
* AMD Radeon Vega 8 Graphics
* 16 GB of RAM

The issue also occurs on other games like "Surviving Mars". But not on Minecraft (with a resource-heavy resource pack and shaders) or the Borderlands series games.
What can I do to fix this issue? What information do you need to help me do it?

PS: I'm running Gnome 3 as DE. The issue occurs under both Wayland and X11 as well as under Steam Native and the integrated runtime.

Solution:
Turns out, that the system probably really ran out of memory.
The default settings of both games are set to high defaults.
When I set "Cities Skylines" to the lowest possible graphics settings it loaded a map and i was "able" to play it at no frames per second.
Same goes for "Surviving Mars", though it runs quite smooth on low settings.
I'm sorry for the noise and wish you all a merry Christmas or whatever you're celebrating this time of year.

OP runs gnome and solved the issue for Cities Skylines & Surviving Mars by reducing the settings for those games.

If your problems are with other games, you probably don't have the same issue.
I suggest you start a new thread.

Add glxinfo -B , lspci -k and full dmesg or journalctl -b from a boot where the issue occured.
You appear to have a HP system, which one ?

Arch Linux
